LVEE Winter 2018 complements the summer LVEE conference traditionally gathering participants from Belarus, Russia, Ukraine, and the European Union countries every year since 2005.

LVEE offers a place for free software enthusiasts and professionals to meet and exchange ideas in a friendly informal setting. It is the biggest FOSS event in Belarus.

The presentation topics are normally focused on the design, development, maintenance and adoption of free software solutions. There are also round table discussions on how open technologies integrate into business solutions, and corporate and governmental IT systems.

The official languages of the conference are Russian, Belarusian and English.

The conference format includes presentations and lightning talks, round table and panel discussions, workshops and hacking sessions. The set of the topics is traditionally broad: reports on new free software technologies, software products or their usage, open source businesses, software security, licensing, legal and policy issues, and much more. Speakers of the conference, representatives of the sponsors and the press will receive free entrance passes.
